Your sermon really startled me out ...Thanks Pastor. Your sermon really startled me out of my selfcentered focus of judging God and his perception of me based on my own perceptions of Him and of me. It was a jolt, but a refreshing, forgiving, life renewing jolt. Amazing how that sharp double edged sword cuts in order to heal, isn't it?<BR/>Thanks you so much! Sometimes I think that this is what I need to hear most. But just when I seem to have finally grasped the reality that the Lord doesn't see me according to the Law, I fall back into the same trap of miserably groaning over my failings again. Ironically, that's what the last sentence just did. It is so good to hear every time I come to church that for Christ's sake I AM righteous. I think it will take a while for that to fully sink into my thick head.sarahlaughedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13497856947371058556noreply@blogger.com
